Smarter than the average driver…

Recently we upgraded one of the vehicles in our fleet which created great interest from all at Mercedes-Benz of Edinburgh because of the huge mileage and the immaculate condition of the car, thanks to Jim! Below is the article that was placed in their business magazine and some pictures that were taken of Jim road testing his new car for the first time……Happy driving Jim

Jim from Mark Murphy Limited, the largest independent fruit and vegetable wholesaler in Scotland, recently collected their 2nd Smart Car from Smart at Mercedes-Benz of Edinburgh. Their first fortwo – a 2009 Coupé – had racked up a truly phenomenal 121,000 miles in 7 years of usage with the company, was due to be updated.

Jim, the driver, has been with Mark Murphy and Partner Limited for over 5 years, looking after Edinburgh and East Lothian accounts for the distributor. The smart was Jim’s main mode of transport taking him all across Central Scotland to visit customers on a weekly basis – including a memorable trip to Glenshee Ski Centre with an important delivery, surrounded by 6- foot snow drifts, according to Jim the smart never “missed a beat”

There are lots of reasons that the smart was the ideal car for Mark Murphy Limited and essential for Jim, with his regular visits in to and outside the city: For Jim the smart is “versatile, easy to park, easy going to drive on the motorway, efficient on fuel and has good image for the company”

The need to have a car with all these qualities made choosing another smart the obvious choice as a replacement. They went with another fabulous 2012 model fortwo in crystal white with silver tridion, perfect for another round of wrapping.

Michael from smart of Edinburgh was extremely pleased to supply them with the new fortwo, an the team all look forward to seeing the car in and around the area, racking up miles for Jim…
